Well, to avoid resentment, you can ask yourself if you've really put quite as much work and hours into your entry as others have.I vote for myself sometimes too. Not always. It depends who i think has the best entry. That isn't always me. Shocking, i know

I did spend quite a while working on my entry. And this is the first contest I've ever been in and honestly, it's exciting! ^^ By the way, I can't wait to see what other beautiful pieces you upload on here.

This looks like something straight out of a fairytale book! Very lovely!! Amazing choice on the colors and texture, I can see how much effort went into this piece. Thank you for creating such an amazing work!
